2 Background The basis for this presentation is McGranahan and Matoon, State tax revenues over the business cycle: Patterns and policy responses, Chicago Fed Letter, The Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, June 2012, Number 299. Revenue data contained in this presentation was compiled by the Office of Revenue Analysis from state government sources rather than the U.S. Census Bureau. The nominal revenue data was converted to real terms using the CPI-U for the Boston region as provided by Moody s Analytics. September 30, 2013 FTA Revenue Estimation and Tax Research Conference 2
3 Background The coincident indicator for Rhode Island was downloaded from the Philadelphia Fed s website and used as the measure of Rhode Island economic activity. Due to data access limitations, the period covered by the analysis is generally from 1994:Q3 through 2013:Q2. Quarterly data is used to the greatest extent possible. The charts in the presentation look at year-over-year growth rates in revenues, sources of income and the Rhode Island coincident index. To the extent possible adjustments have been made to the data to account for anomalies in the data. September 30, 2013 FTA Revenue Estimation and Tax Research Conference 3

15 Adjusting to the Volatility of Revenues McGranahan and Matoon suggest four ways that state policymakers can adjust to revenue volatility: 1. Adjust revenue policy 2. Rely on the federal government for aid 3. Adjust expenditures 4. Manage state assets to offset volatile revenue streams September 30, 2013 FTA Revenue Estimation and Tax Research Conference 15
16 Adjusting to the Volatility of Revenues How has Rhode Island performed on these benchmarks? 1. Adjust revenue policy Enacted a personal income tax reform that a. Lowered marginal tax rates b. Taxed all income as ordinary income c. Eliminated the use of itemized deductions d. Reduced the number of credits that could be used against personal income tax Expanded the sales tax base to exempt items a. Over-the-counter drugs b. Software downloaded digitally c. Road transportation services d. Pet care services September 30, 2013 FTA Revenue Estimation and Tax Research Conference 16
17 Adjusting to the Volatility of Revenues How has Rhode Island performed on these benchmarks? 2. Rely on federal government for aid YES! Used federal largesse in FY 2002 in the form of $50.0 million in expenditure credits and $50.0 million in cost share changes in the Federal Medical Assistance Percentages (FMAP) Used ARRA education monies in FY 2009 to supplant state education aid payments and cost share changes in the FMAP September 30, 2013 FTA Revenue Estimation and Tax Research Conference 17
18 Adjusting to the Volatility of Revenues How has Rhode Island performed on these benchmarks? 3. Adjust expenditures In FY 2009 eliminated the reimbursement of foregone local property tax revenue from the exemption value of motor vehicles Passed constitutional amendment that reduced the percentage of estimated general revenues that can be budgeted from 98.0 percent to 97.0 percent increasing the budget reserve fund In 2011 passed the Treasurer s Rhode Island Retirement Security Act which reduced the unfunded state pension liability by $3.0 billion September 30, 2013 FTA Revenue Estimation and Tax Research Conference 18
